TennoCon 2024 lifts the veil on the hotly anticipated Warframe: 1999

Warframe's TennoCon 2024: A Blast from the Past with Warframe: 1999

TennoCon 2024 delivered a knockout punch with the announcement of Warframe: 1999, a massive update transporting players to a retro-futuristic 1999. Get ready for a wild ride through a Techrot-infested city teetering on the brink of a Y2K apocalypse. This isn't just another expansion; it's a whole new level of stylish, explosive action.

Kicking things off is a prologue quest, "The Lotus Eaters," launching in August 2024. Reuniting players with a beloved character, this quest sets the stage for the main event, introducing the world of 1999 and the powerful Sevatgoth Prime Warframe and its exclusive weapons. Completing "The Lotus Eaters" is a prerequisite for experiencing Warframe: 1999, slated for release in Winter 2024.

Warframe: 1999 plunges players into an alternate 1999 where the Y2K bug is a deadly virus. Explore the neon-drenched city of Höllvania, navigating its Techrot-corrupted streets on the new Atomicyles – vehicles capable of bullet jumps, drifts, and even explosive maneuvers. Commanding these futuristic steeds is the Hex, a team of six heroes each equipped with a Protoframe, a unique Warframe design showcasing the human pilot within.

Meet Arthur (Excalibur), Aoi (Mag), Quincy (the new CYTE-09), and more, voiced by a star-studded cast including Alpha Takahashi, Ben Starr, Melissa Medina, and Amelia Tyler. Interact with them in true 1999 style – via instant messaging!

Prepare for a showdown with On-lyne, a 90s boy band corrupted by Technocyte Coda. Led by the charismatic Zeke (voiced by Nick Apostolides), their infectious tunes are available now on major streaming services. But don't let their catchy hits fool you; they're formidable foes.

Fashion is key in Warframe: 1999. Dual fashion frame loadouts let you switch styles on the fly, while the new Gemini Skins allow you to bring the Protoframes, like Arthur and Aoi, into the Origin System. These skins unlock fully voiced lines for combat and even casual conversations with your operator.

Beyond the main event, Digital Extremes is collaborating with THE LINE to produce an anime short based on Warframe: 1999, launching later this year. And to celebrate, high-fidelity Heirloom skins for Ember (available now) and Rhino (coming early 2025) are ready for your collection.
